Convenience

Murcia Airport can get very busy during the summer with people who wish to visit all the surrounding areas.

Editor’s Note

At the moment, there is no public transport that directly connects Murcia Airport and Torrevieja. This makes airport taxis the best option to reach Torrevieja for larger groups or families, despite the higher price.

Useful Tips

Most regular taxis in Murcia don’t accept card payments so make sure to have some cash with you.

It’s common to come across a taxi driver who doesn’t speak English, so make sure to have your address written down.

Once you enter the taxi, make sure the driver sets the taximeter to the base fare of €2.40 during the day, or €2.99 during nighttime.

Tipping the taxi driver isn’t expected but it’s customary to round up the final amount.
